About Anne Jobson

I am a barrister and moved to Exeter from London 15 years ago when I purchased the near derelict Georgian terrace that is now my home and where apartment@26 takes up the top 2 floors. I redesigned the garden where I grow vegetables and have fruit trees as well as play space for the dog. I love the local food, arts and crafts and as I get the apartment set up I am always on the look out for something new - details of the craftsmen can be found in the welcome pack.

Falconry is a great hobby as are gardening; dancing and dog walking. I also have a cat called Monty and a Little Owl, Theia in the aviary at the bottom of the garden. I look forward to welcoming you.

Anne Jobson purchased this apartment in 2001

Guestbook comments from the owner

The welcome pack is really very nice and the toiletries a nice touch. The beds are comfortable and the linen lovely. Thank you so much for the street map, it was helpful to have. Aside from the blip with the Internet we didn't have any problems,

Comfortable and convenient home

We had a great time in Exeter and around, and Anne was a perfect host. She left us delicious local breakfast provisions and soap; provided us a place to park, and provided extra bedding when we needed it. The apartment is lovely and an easy walk from the center. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds are comfortable. Great stay!

Fantastic!!

I've been there with my family for five days. The house is fantastic and it is situated in a good position (not far from the city centre). I really recommend it, especially if you are looking for a cozy and nice place to stay.

Owner's Response: Thank you for this review. I thoroughly enjoyed having the family to stay and am really glad you enjoyed yourselves.

Owner's Response: Thank you for the review and I am sorry about the kitchen and bathroom on this occasion and wish that my guests had said something at the time as I could have rectified the problem.. I am now not certain what the problem as the apartment is always thoroughly cleaned before any guest arrives. I am so sorry to my guests and will double check the situation in future.
